The fire happened two days after Christmas at a home on West Aberdeen Drive.

The homeowner, Jacob Oakes, is a firefighter. Nobody was home at the time of the fire except for the family dog, who firefighters couldn't save.

Several items were raffled off, including a new television.

"I'm floored at the amount of people that showed up. People I haven't talked to in years messaged me on Facebook or called me. People I don't even know, coming out to support me. It's amazing," Oakes said.
